  2. Drinks breakpublished at 17:31 British Summer Time 29 May 2015

    Ronchi is riding his luck slightly, edging his sixth four past second slip - and with 26 overs left in the day, umpire Rod Tucker waves on the substitutes for a drinks break.

    Antony Stewart: NZ playing one-day stuff here - wonder when they'll take the batting powerplay.

    Jack Serle: New Zealand top order clearly decided they don't want to do any running today.

  4. NZ 180-5published at 17:26 British Summer Time 29 May 2015

    Yep, it's off-spinner Moeen Ali into the attack, having trapped Latham lbw in the first innings at Lord's. He's round the wicket to the left-hander, who's watchful, playing out a maiden as he twice fails to work Moeen into the leg side.

  5. Mistaken for a cricketer?published at 17:26 British Summer Time 29 May 2015

    Steve Warriner: Back in 1980, whilst I was a student in Nottingham, I was introduced to a very attractive young lady with long blonde hair who remarked almost immediately that I bore a strong resemblance to David Gower. Naturally I was flattered but I never saw her again after that day. About 3 years later I was sitting in a pub in the tiny village of Llangorse near Brecon when a crowd of people arrived and started throwing beer mats to each other. One came my way and an attractive young lady with long blonde hair turned round to take the beer mat back and remarked that I looked a lot like David Gower. Incredibly, it was the same girl. Cool as you like I replied "You quite like him don't you, Vicky." Her face was a picture of complete bewilderment!

  6. NZ 180-5 (Latham 68*, Ronchi 26*)published at 17:24 British Summer Time 29 May 2015

    There still looks to be a stiff breeze at Headingley, but Anderson can't find any assistance at this stage. Latham adds a single to his score, while some helmets are brought out, signalling that we might be seeing some spin for the first time today.

    "If Ronchi gets in, people are in for a treat. He's always prepared to play his shots. New Zealand are going along at a real clip."

  9. NZ 179-5 (Stokes 10-2-33-1)published at 17:21 British Summer Time 29 May 2015

    Ronchi drives at Stokes, the big Durham man leaps to his right to try to cut the ball off but can't reach it and that's four. The debutant tucks into Stokes with two more cover drives, fizzing away for four - Ronchi has 26 from his first 18 balls in Test cricket. Time for a change in the bowling?

    Hugo Rainey: Is Luke Ronchi the first person with a Star Wars character's first name to play Test cricket? We might have had Hansie Cronje, but I can't see Han (Solo or otherwise) out there just yet.

    Does Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi count? If he doesn't, it's over to you. Anyone called Lando or Leia ever play a Test?

  11. NZ 167-5 (Latham 67, Ronchi 14)published at 17:16 British Summer Time 29 May 2015

    James Anderson back in the attack - as Graeme Swann pointed out on TMS earlier, the "Burnley Express" is sporting a rather different haircut today, very short on the sides. In fact, it's not entirely dissimilar to the haircut of a former team-mate of Anderson and Swann - an ex-Natal off-spinner who probably won't be on their Christmas card lists... But Jimmy has to wait for wicket number 402 as Ronchi pokes a three through the covers, while Latham drills a four past mid-on.

    "The English bowlers have concentrated on Latham's leg stump. If you look at Latham's run chart in this innings, a high percentage would be from mid-wicket down to fine leg."

  13. NZ 160-5published at 17:11 British Summer Time 29 May 2015

    A predatory cordon of slip fielders stand behind Latham, who nearly turns Stokes onto his stumps - immediately examining the toe-end of his bat as though there was no possible way he would otherwise have played a false stroke. An elegant off-drive brings the Christchurch-born left-hander (son of Rod Latham, one of NZ's array of medium-pace trundlers from the 1992 World Cup) four more.

    "It's the same as Lord's in terms of the pace of the game. It's getting to where it needs to be very quickly. Every time the bowlers try to sneak a wicket, the New Zealanders are pouncing on it."

    Ben Dalton: Good luck to Luke Ronchi, the first Luke ever to play Test cricket. May the fours be with him.

    Simon Morris: Everyone at Bashley CC, external willing Ronchi to get runs but the rest of NZ to fail.

  16. NZ 156-5 (Wood 11-2-57-1)published at 17:07 British Summer Time 29 May 2015

    Big shout from Wood as Ronchi plays forward and the ball whistles past his outside edge. Good decision from the umpire. But Ronchi is up and running, pushing a two before pulling a four past the non-striker for four to reach double figures in his first Test innings.

    "Cricket on fast forward at Headingley, a run-rate of just under five and a wicket every 30 balls or so. Even the sun is out, but not warm enough to be outside without a jacket. High jinx on the Western Terrace. Those boys are well oiled."

    "At Headingley it's about bowling that full length without being a half-volley. Bowl as short as you dare, but bring them forward."

  19. NZ 150-5published at 17:03 British Summer Time 29 May 2015

    Latham knocks Stokes for a single, bringing Ronchi (by the way, it's pronounced "ron-key", to rhyme with donkey or wonky) on strike. England's tails are up after that wicket, even more so after Ronchi fishes at one outside off stump - but a single takes the tourists to 150.

    "Ronchi hit his first ball in Test cricket for four - the last New Zealander to do so was Gary Stead, external in 1999."
